Jul 10, 2012Form Autocad 2000 to 2012, there is always with this problem. It happens sometimes in object snap, it does not work to snap a intersection point (two crossed lines) when drawing a line or arc or others. For sure, these two lines are in the same plan and can be filleted or chamfered. So I turned on the Apparent intersection, it works with apparent intersection point, I am not sure if this apparent intersection will cause other problem. I am working on pure 2-D drawing, do not want to get any 3D objects inside the drawing.

Oct 10, 2009I get inconsistent results when I try to use the object snap to a point such as an intersection in an xref. Sometimes it works and sometimes it does not. Even the "nearest" doesn't seem to recognize the xref consistently. Is there a way to insure that the point is recognized?

Aug 26, 2012I have problem with placing origin of ordinate dimensions on point where two centerlines are intersecting.
In my particular case I have rectangle and centerlines are in the middle of pararel edges. So they are crossing eatch other in the center of rectangle.
I need to place origin for ordinate dimensions in this point. But till now I had not find any way to do that except make a skkech and draw a line that's one end is exactly in the point I want. But it seems to me like rather ridicules aolution.
AutoCad 3D :: Snap To The End Of A Mesh
Apr 26, 2012I have moved a mesh off to the side while I work on the 3d solid substructure the mesh covers. Now I need to move the mesh back, but it will not select the end "corner" of the mesh so I can place it back into position. This was not a problem in the past (200, but it doesn't work in our current version of AutoCad 2009. Is there a system variable or setting I need to set?

May 20, 2013I cant seem to snap to guide intersections when a linked jpeg file is visible. It works fine when I turn off the visibility of the layer the file is on but I am trying to "trace" over the image with line segments. I know that I have been able to do this in the past but for some reason it is not working now. Im sure that I have accidentally changed something but don't know what.

Jan 21, 2012I have a 3d model of a building and all of the faces of the building are of the type polyface mesh. If I use explode, each polyface mesh gets split into individual 3d faces. But, I'd simply like to replace each polyface mesh with a 3d face (not multiple 3d faces). Is there anyway to do this?
The reason I'm doing this is because I'm importing the building model into ray tracing software, but the software doesn't like the building when the faces are of the type polyface mesh.
AutoCAD 2010 :: Importing A Poly Face Mesh
Jan 19, 2012I am trying to import a Polyface Mesh of a road plan to use in Terramodel. Terramodel handles .dwf and .dxf perfectly, but I seem to be having trouble preserving the elevations when importing. The polyface mesh imports in as polylines and without preserving the given elevations. I have used autocad in the past and have access to Autocad Civil 3d 2012 if need be.
Is there an import tool or command I am missing or unaware of that will allow the import to take place successfully?

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Create Intersection Design Using Intersection Tools
Mar 6, 2013I am trying to create an intersection design using the Intersection Tools in C3D 2012. I followed the steps in the tutorials, created a corridor on the major road, splitted the regions, created the intersection and added it to the major road corridor, and connect the regions with the intersection portion.
I used the same assembly throughout the design just for simplicity, however, i notice that there are gaps of curb between the curb return section and the through section (as outline in red rectangles).

View 6 Replies View RelatedIllustrator :: Can Import Settings From CS5 Live Trace To CS6 Image Trace
Oct 7, 2012I'm loving CS6 Illustrator, except for one thing. Image Trace. Here, Adobe seem to have taken away the two most usefull settings from Live Trace, and replaced all the presets with ones that are pretty much unusable. I almost always used either 'Comic Art' or 'Lettering' to trace hand-drawn images, but they're both gone. None of the new settings are good enough, even if I make a custom one. The main issue is that the sliders in Image Trace are for completely different things to those in Live Trace, so it's difficult to translate one set of settings into the other.
With Image Trace, I cannot get the same results as with Live Trace, and so far, have found myself having to have Illustrator CS5 open at the same time as CS6, just so I can get workable traces.
I don't know if it's possible, but is there any way to import the presets from Live Trace, or even the full tool, into CS6, to replace the new Image Trace presets?how to make the equivelant of Comic Art in Image Trace's new settings?This is a close up of a file I was trying to trace, showing the major difference in quality between the two CS versions.
Left: CS5 - Comic Art setting.
Right: CS6 - This is a custom setting, but is the closest I have come to Comic Art thus far.
As you can see, the definition of Image Trace is far lower in quality than Live Trace, giving me one large connected blob of colour rather than the distictly separate lines produced in Live Trace.
Illustrator :: Results In Image Trace Don't Match Live Trace
Aug 8, 2012I just started using CS6, jumping from CS3. A major tool I use is Live Trace, and I have custom settings for that. I cannot find a way to make Image Trace behave the way Live Trace did for black and white line drawings. The results I get in CS6 are far inferior to those I got in CS3 in terms of retaining the look of the original raster image. Otherwise, I will have to leave CS3 installed just to do my Live Trace.
Here is a sample of what I mean. You can see the quality degredation in CS6 compared to CS3. (And it's much more obvious when it's full size and full resolution.)
My settings used in Live Trace (CS3) were:
The settings I tried in CS6 that gave the above result were:

AutoCad :: Turn Snap Mode Off Globally (Snap Not Osnap)
Nov 8, 2011We recently had a draftsman that drew with snap on (he no longer works here), and now all the drawings he worked on have this setting turned on. I thought it would be as simple as opening up the drawings and either hitting F9 or clicking on the toggle to turn off snap. That doesn't seem to be the case. Snap mode seems to be tied to individual sheets, and every viewport. I have multiple sheets in a drawing and each sheet has multiple viewports. The last thing I want to do is open every drawing, click in every viewport on every sheet to turn off snap.
I have snapmode set to 0, but it will only turn it of in whatever sheet or viewport is active. I have to write a lisp routine that will go through every viewport on every sheet to set snapmode to 0?
AutoCAD Inventor :: Matching Mesh Of Hole / Mesh Of Round Bar
Apr 9, 2012I have an assembly that has somewhere a hole with a round bar that exactly fits in this hole. But when meshing the assembly, the mesh of the hole and the mesh of the bar are different.
The result is that the different parts do only seem to touch each other at the edges of the mesh, resulting in high stresses.
See picture.
I tried to made a derived part from the assembly, but that one does not finish meshing. After 48 hours, the progress bar is still half way. While the one above did finish in about 15 minutes. What can I do to make the meshes match?
